Sometimes I just want to play a small game with limited warships. This way every warship I have actually means something.
[quote who="MrStarTrek" reply="9" id="3553397"] I just have few words to add to this thread: NO WAY!!!!! DUMB IDEA! NO LIMITS! [/quote] Doesn't add to the discussion. Nice to know that there's actually a report for trolling option on this forum.
[quote who="Echillion" reply="3" id="3553178"] I'll politely say this - ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND? limiting number and size of ship the boys gone loco! This IS why I bought GC3! its bad enough we have the same logistical limits on fleets from GC2 let alone limit the total unit numbers! [e digicons]:thumbsdown:[/e] [/quote] Thanks for being polite about it. But just because your playstyle is different than mine doesn't mean what I would like to see as an
The way I see it, any bonus that benefit ships and conquest would still remain and just add to the limit. It would be q soft limit really. So a faction that has ship bonuses or those that get some type of bonus that would add to them getting more warships would benefit by having a few additional ships. Also option to limit type of starbase would be included. So can't spam cultural starbase for win. This should all be optional since everyone has their own play
thank you
Yep, should be an option, everyone has their own play style, more option the better. It should let you use on any map and you should be able to enter how many of each hull type available. So that way, we can limit a game to any combo We desire. large map with limited capital ships would be interesting.
In a future patch, can we have an option that we can set limits to the number of warships (ships with weapons) each factions can have? Even have limits on each hull type with weapons. I ask because with that option, warships can become a great comodity. Imagine a situation where you either have to send your fleet to defend a potebtiaLoy volatile border or go after a pirate base. This would be great in multiplayer as well, where players just doesn't
Thanks for that, very helpful in getting my feet wet in modding. my goal is to really limit the amount warships the different factions can spawn. Keeps the game more intimate and makes warship seem more formidable.
Finally got it to work. It's weird, I just openEd the file in paint.net to make sure it was in PNG and then saved it again and it worked.
Hi and my modding experience is very limited. I did play around with xml files in Galciv 2 changing values around. But since I have some time now, I'd like to learn the ins and outs. Is there a how to guide on creating custom models of ships for specific races?
I want to create a custom resource that is produce automatically in a factions homeworld. For instance I want to create the resource called Soymilk. I want each faction's homeworld to produce a specific amount say 4. I also want to ensure that to create the larger ships hull, you would need 1 soymilk for each ship. This way, I can limit the amount of the larger classes of ships to a specific number per factions. Can someone point me to some resources or tut
Can someone point out some resources on how I can create custom set of ships for a custom race? Like, what ships do i need to design (colony, freighter, scout and what else) and how do i set them as a package so that I can select it in the custom race screen.
I got portrait and logo to work. Played around with size and it seems that if I use 1980x1080, it doesn't work. But when I use something smaller like 1280x720, it works. Wonder what's wrong. But I can live with 720. It would probably work if i stick to the aspect ration and go a bit higher, its only with the 1980 that I'm having trouble with. Thanks for the help anyways. I appreciate you taking the time to try and help me
What are the dimension for custom race foreground and where should I save it. I created one with 1920x1080 and saved it in the C:\Users\UserName\Documents\My Games\GalCiv3\Factions\LeaderFGs location. Still it does not show up as a custom portrain on creating a new race. Please Help.
Where do I place the files? I put it in mod folder and it doesn't come up when I create a new race.
Hi. I created a custom art to use for a custom race. I placed it in the Galciv 3 mod folder, but when I go to select a picture, i don't see it. Image is in PNG format. I have the Steam copy of the game. Where am I suppose to put the png file? And what size and format should it be? i have the small picture as 128x128, large one is 1000x1000. What am i doing wrong? Thanks,
How do i get the founders badge and stuff? I usually buy directly from Stardock but this time, I went with Steam.
Is there any word if Stardock will be releasing any additional stock art such as more .bik files and flags to be used for custom faction mods? I would even pay a small price for a DLC package that includes additional arts and files to be used in creating custom factions and ship parts. What I would like to see are: Alternate Art and video style for Humans and Races. (Includes all animation) Star Control Art Package to be used in Galciv 3 custom faction (s
Thank you for the info.
what are the file type and dimensions for custom faction art and animation? I'd like to try making one for a custom race I had in mind. Would like it to be similar to the one built in.
